X2,

I have exactly what J Franklin recommends except my original reflectors have been re-silvered. Brattons excellent new reflectors were not yet available. Very good headlights.

I have tried LED's but overall they are not as good as the 32/50 cp bulbs. Lots of light but it does not seem to focus nearly as well. I have heard others complain about the same thing.

I would NOT recommend Quartz/Halogen. These require lots of amps and run really hot causing problems with connections.

Good reflectors and 32/50 bulbs properly focused and aimed is the way to go in my opinion.
